of this book,the field of analog integrated circuits hasdeveloped and matured.The initial groundwork was laid in bipolar technology,followed bya rapid evolution of MOS analog integrated circuits.Thirty years ago,CMOS technologieswere fast enough to support applications only at audio frequencies.However,the continu-ing reduction of the minimum feature size in integrated-circuit(IC)technologies has greatlyincreased the maximum operating frequencies,and CMOS technologies have become fastenough for many new applications as a result.For example,the bandwidth in some videoapplications is about 4 MHz,requiring bipolar technologies as recently as about twenty-threeyears ago.Now,however,CMOS easily can accommodate the required bandwidth for videoandisbeingusedforradio-frequencyapplications.Today,bipolarintegratedcircuitsareusedinsomeapplicationsthatrequireverylownoise,verywidebandwidth,ordrivinglow-impedanceloads.In this fifth edition,coverage of the bipolar 741 op amp has been replaced with a low-voltage bipolar op amp,the NE5234,with rail-to-rail common-mode input range and almostrail-to-rail output swing.Analysis of a fully differential CMOS folded-cascode operationalamplifier(op amp)is now included in Chapter 12.The 560B phase-locked loop,which is nolonger commercially available,has been deleted from Chapter 10.The SPICE computer analysis program is now readily available to virtually all electricalengineering students and professionals,and we have included extensive use of SPICE in thisedition,particularly as an integral part of many problems.We have used computer analysis asit is most commonly employed in the engineering design processboth as a more accuratecheck on hand calculations,and also as a tool to examine complex circuit behavior beyond thescope of hand analysis.An in-depth look at SPICE as an indispensable tool for IC robust design can be found inThe SPICE Book,2nd ed.,published by J.Wiley and Sons.This text contains many workedout circuit designs and verification examples linked to the multitude of analyses available inthe most popular versions of SPICE.The SPICE Book conveys the role of simulation as anintegralpartofthedesignprocess,butnotasareplacementforsolidcircuit-designknowledge.This book is intended to be useful both as a text for students and as a reference book forpracticingengineers.Forclassuse,eachchapterincludesmanyworkedproblems;theproblemsets at the end of each chapter illustrate the practical applications of the material in the text.Allof the authors have extensive industrial experience in IC design and in the teaching of courseson this subject;this experience is reflected in the choice of text material and in the problemsets.AlthoughthisbookisconcernedlargelywiththeanalysisanddesignofICs,aconsiderableamount of material also is included on applications.In practice,these two subjects are closelylinked,and a knowledge of both is essential for designers and users of ICs.The latter composethe larger group by far,and we believe that a working knowledge of IC design is a greatadvantagetoanICuser.Thisisparticularlyapparentwhentheusermustchoosefromamonganumber of competing designs to satisfy a particular need.An understanding of the IC structureis then useful in evaluating the relative desirability of the different designs under extremes ofenvironment or in the presence of variations in supply voltage.In addition,the IC user is in aivPrefacevmuch better position to interpret a manufacturers data if he or she has a working knowledgeof the internal operation of the integrated circuit.The contents of this book stem largely from courses on analog integrated circuits given atthe University of California at the Berkeley and Davis campuses.The courses are senior-levelelectives and first-year graduate courses.The book is structured so that it can be used as thebasic text for a sequence of such courses.The more advanced material is found at the end ofeach chapter or in an appendix so that a first course in analog integrated circuits can omit thismaterial without loss of continuity.An outline of each chapter is given below with suggestionsfor material to be covered in such a first course.It is assumed that the course consists of threehours of lecture per week over a fifteen-week semester and that the students have a workingknowledge of Laplace transforms and frequency-domain circuit analysis.It is also assumedthat the students have had an introductory course in electronics so that they are familiar withtheprinciplesoftransistoroperationandwiththefunctioningofsimpleanalogcircuits.Unlessotherwise stated,each chapter requires three to four lecture hours to cover.Chapter 1 contains a summary of bipolar transistor and MOS transistor device physics.We suggest spending one week on selected topics from this chapter,with the choice of topicsdependingonthebackgroundofthestudents.ThematerialofChapters1and2isquiteimportantin IC design because there is significant interaction between circuit and device design,as willbe seen in later chapters.A thorough understanding of the influence of device fabrication ondevice characteristics is essential.Chapter 2 is concerned with the technology of IC fabrication and is largely descriptive.One lecture on this material should suffice if the students are assigned the chapter to read.Chapter3dealswiththecharacteristicsofelementarytransistorconnections.Thematerialonone-transistoramplifiersshouldbeareviewforstudentsattheseniorandgraduatelevelsandcan be assigned as reading.The section on two-transistor amplifiers can be covered in aboutthree hours,with greatest emphasis on differential pairs.The material on device mismatcheffects in differential amplifiers can be covered to the extent that time allows.InChapter4,theimportanttopicsofcurrentmirrorsandactiveloadsareconsidered.Theseconfigurations are basic building blocks in modern analog IC design,and this material shouldbe covered in full,with the exception of the material on band-gap references and the materialin the appendices.Chapter5isconcernedwithoutputstagesandmethodsofdeliveringoutputpowertoaload.Integrated-circuit realizations of Class A,Class B,and Class AB output stages are described,as well as methods of output-stage protection.A selection of topics from this chapter shouldbe covered.Chapter 6 deals with the design of operational amplifiers(op amps).Illustrative examplesof dc and ac analysis in both MOS and bipolar op amps are performed in detail,and the limita-tions of the basic op amps are described.The design of op amps with improved characteristicsin both MOS and bipolar technologies are considered.This key chapter on amplifier designrequires at least six hours.In Chapter 7,the frequency response of amplifiers is considered.The zero-value time-constanttechniqueisintroducedforthecalculationsofthe3-dBfrequencyofcomplexcircuits.The material of this chapter should be considered in full.Chapter 8 describes the analysis of feedback circuits.Two different types of analysis arepresented:two-port and return-ratio analyses.Either approach should be covered in full withthe section on voltage regulators assigned as reading.Chapter 9 deals with the frequency response and stability of feedback circuits and shouldbe covered up to the section on root locus.Time may not permit a detailed discussion of rootlocus,but some introduction to this topic can be given.viPrefaceIn a fifteen-week semester,coverage of the above material leaves about two weeks forChapters 10,11,and 12.A selection of topics from these chapters can be chosen as follows.Chapter 10 deals with nonlinear analog circuits and portions of this chapter up to Section10.2 could be covered in a first course.Chapter 11 is a comprehensive treatment of noisein integrated circuits and material up to and including Section 11.4 is suitable.Chapter 12describes fully differential operational amplifiers and common-mode feedback and may bebest suited for a second course.We
